Precautions for the Movie Camera

 

#$%&'()*+

In the event of abnormal operation (e.g. if the unit emits

 

smoke or an unusual smell), immediately stop operating the

 

 

 

 

unit and consult qualified service personnel.

 

For Australia or New Zealand:

 

Consult the Panasonic Customer Care Centre on 132600.

 

 

To prevent fire, electric shock and malfunction,

 

!"#$

observe the following points:

 

 

Do not disassemble the Movie Camera or make any

 

 

alterations to it.

 

 

Protect against spray water and sand.

 

Take care that water splashes (especially seawater) or dust

 

do not enter the Movie Camera. If seawater has accidentally

 

 

splashed onto the Movie Camera, moisten a soft cloth with

 

tap water, wring it out well and carefully wipe the camera

 

body with it. Then thoroughly wipe it with a soft, dry cloth.

!"#$%&'

Do not insert any foreign objects.

 

 

Do not cover with a cloth during use.

 

Do not subject to strong vibrations or mechanical shocks.

 

Do not use in places with oily smoke and a lot of dust.

 

If a thunderstorm approaches, stop using the Movie Camera. (If

 

 

you are using the AC Adaptor, disconnect it from the AC mains

 

 

 

socket taking care not to touch any metal parts.)

 

Do not use near magnetized equipment.

 

 

Do not use near a radio or TV.

 

 

Do not use near a cell phone because doing so may cause

 

 

noise to adversely affect the picture and sound.

 

Do not use with the cassette compartment facing down.

 

 

Do not aim the Lens or Finder directly at the sun; the lens

 

￿￿

collects light and the resulting heat could deform internal

 

precision parts and cause irreparable damage to the Movie

 

Camera.

 

 

 

Do not leave in a closed car on a summer day.

 

The inside temperature becomes higher than you imagine

 

 

 

 

and this could damage the Movie Camera.

 

 

Do not wash with water.

 

Water might leak into the Movie Camera and cause an

 

electric shock or fire.

 

Do not use a cleaning fluid, benzine, thinner or other

 

 

chemicals for cleaning. They might not only change the

 

 

colour and damage the surface of the camera body, but

 

might also increase the risk of fire if there is an open flame

 

NR￿OR￿

or heater nearby.

 

QM￿SM￿

Never leave the Movie Camera in places with high temperature.

 

Precautions for Storing the Movie Camera

 

Be sure to take out the cassette and remove the Battery

 

before storing.

 

 

Avoid the following places:

 

 

Places with high temperature and high relative humidity

 

Recommended temperature: 15oC–25oC

 

Recommended relative humidity: 40%–60%

 

 

Places exposed to direct sunlight

 

 

In direct contact with rubber or plastic products for a long

 

 

 

￿￿

time

 

In reach of children

 

Precautions for the AC Adaptor

 

 

Observe the following points:

 

 

 

 

Use only for the specified Movie Camera and Battery.

 

 

Do not handle with wet hands.

 

 

To unplug the AC Mains Lead, be sure to pull it out by the

 

 

plug, not by the cable.

 

 

Do not forcefully bend the cables or alter them.

 

 

-124-Do not operate very close to a radio, TV etc.
